The North Face A-CAD FUTURELIGHT 3L Women's Shell Jacket raises the bar even higher for breathable-waterproof clothing. FUTURELIGHT 3L is a new 3-layer, nano-fiber fabric that protects against the elements in the harshest environments by combining extreme waterproofing, breathability, and a soft-brushed, warm tricot backer that actually feels good against your skin. It doesn't require heat build up on the inside for it to maximize breathability and maintains an even level of moisture management for consistent comfort- even if you have cooled off or are just standing around. FUTURELIGHT 3L is several times quieter than Gore-Tex, eVent, or any other nylon-based fabric. Rather than the loud whooshing sound that most windbreakers regularly make, this ultra-thin, lightweight jacket has a smooth feeling as it brushes against itself. This high-quality, seam-sealed outer layer is designed with a more relaxed fit and mechanical stretch to make this shell nimble so you can move easier on any ride without constraints. Plus, it has a DWR finish and waterproof zippers for an added moisture barrier. Additionally, with the face and back layers crafted with 90% recycled materials, it's the most sustainably-produced fabric to date from The North Face.
